7900 River Rd? Not much out there but farm land fields. Just one big relatively gentle curve of the river. I wonder if he fell asleep.

The gradient is sharp if you drift off. Any quick corrections and it's over.

Sad to hear. Me and my parents were just talking about how drivers make that stretch dangerous in the mornings. People drive 80 in a 55mph zone with no shoulder. I'd rather sit in minor traffic on Nicholson.

Single-car, so I wonder what he crashed into and how fast he was going.

My phone blew up earlier. I only met the guy a handful of times but he came across as a real good guy.

I run that section of the levee three nights a week. Twice a week I see someone go off the edge of the road and have to get back on and also people passing in the no passing sections. Pretty odd to see all that and the cyclist all mixed together.
